Get ready to race! Mario Kart Wii review

The awesome racing game for the Wii console, Mario Kart Wii, gets it's own review right here and right now! As now I have a brain (and a proper one) I will make it right, organized and interesting. More details in teh review!

 

 Review #2: Mario Kart Wii!

 

Welcome to the review of MK Wii.

This very good game, with it's pros and cons is, of course, for the Wii. The game is about racing with nice, 3D graphics while controlling the kart or bike using your preferred controller; The game has a few modes for a single player, some applying to the multiplayer too. The game comes with a Wii Wheel, for intuitive steering while playing the game. As you play the game you discover more abilities, characters, karts and bikes, courses and much more! New to the Mario Kart series there are the bikes, which have their own advantages and disadvantages. So let's start wiiiiiiiith...

 

Teh gameplay and teh controllers

 

  The gameplay is as simple and fun as it always had... but now with intuitive steering and controlling! The Wii Wheel that comes with the game makes you feel nearly as if you were really driving. The gameplay is similiar to it's previous generation: One of many characters, sitting in a kart or a bike, and driving.
In this version of Mario Kart, there are 16 Wii-made tracks (Some, I found, are based off previous tracks, but don't look the same), and 16 previously made tracks, two or three tracks from each and every version that came before. Surprisingly, even the 2D Super Mario Kart for the SNES turned 3D all of the sudden!
The new thing to Mario Kart is the bikes. The bikes are faster than the karts, and have sharper turns; yet their mini-turbo never becomes a turbo. In comparison to that, The karts maybe are slower and their turns are wider, but they have the turbo to help them out. So your choice. In my humble opinion, the karts are better with places that have many turns, etc; I find that the bikes tend to go off-road at extremely sharp turns, surprisingly. Or maybe that's just in the water. In conclusion, the gameplay stayed nearly the same, with a few twists here and there.

 

9/10 

 

 Graphics

The graphics are amazing to see and play with. It makes think about the development Nintendo did along with Mario Kart. The 3D graphics are as smooth as they can be for a Mario Kart game, and don't get stuck at all. The Wii stages, are of course, with great graphics and depth; but what is really amazing is how the game turned the previous old versions of the game into the same graphics! For those who remember the good old 2D Super Mario Kart awaits a surprise: The same tracks are there and in Wii-level 3D! It's just wodnerful to see those graphics. But in some tracks there are places the graphics are acting odd. At the Maple Treeway, you can actually go into a tree. At some other places, there is a slight glitch; on the farther from the middle of the place side of the track, even if you go just a bit off it considers you as if you fell off. There are many more of those, most of them are un-noticeable, yet it affects sometimes the gameplay. Which is probably the reason why I got one point off the gameplay section.

 

 7/10

Sound 

 

As the sound comes from both the TV and the Wiimote, it gives a great effect of depth to the game. The main sounds, voices and so on come from the TV, while the Wiimote is used for sound effects like hopping, falling onto the ground, etc. The sound quality is extremely good, and for a Wii is near perfection alltogether; But sometimes it's just annoying to death to hear some sounds over and over again. And again. And again. And so on and so forth for ever after.

 

8/10

 

Wi-fi gameplay

 

The new Wi-Fi option, which started already on the Nintendo DS, gives here the option to play with people all around the world, and not only like, a 10m radius around you. Overall, the Wi-Fi never ever lags. EVER. So you get to play a smooth race or battle, alone or with a friend, on teh Wi-fi. In the Wi-Fi mode you play along with up to eleven other players around the world (or up to ten, if you play with a friend). The possible modes in the Wi-Fi mode are VS race and Battle, which both will be explained the next section.

 

10/10 

Modes, and multiplayer modes. 

 

Now there are a few modes. I'm gonna explain a little on each of them.

The Grand Prix - Race at a 50cc, 100cc, or 150cc class, depending on your skill level. Finish races here to win prizes and unlock characters, karts and bikes!

 

Time trial - Race against a ghost data of a Nintendo staff member, against your own best time, or go solo against the time itself.

 

VS Race - A race that it's settings can be changed. Just like in the Grand Prix but is a one-time thing. The number of races in a cup can also be changed. Can be played in multiplayer mode.

 

Battle - This mode is divided in two.
Balloon battle: In this mode the target is to hit as many racers of the other team as possible, popping as much balloons as possible.

 Coin runners: Drive around and collect coins, while hitting racers of the opposite team to make an amount of coins disappear for them. Can be played in multiplayer mode.

 

 No ranking

 

Average ranking of the game:  8.5

Hellos people~
Today I'm going to review a game I play for a few days now, and I find it pretty fun.
FOR RANKS JUST GO TO THE BOTTOM. Ty.
Okay. So here we go:

Spore is a great game from the developers of SimCity, The Sims and The Sims 2: Maxis. Once you enter the game, you can use an existing user or register if you don't have one. I didn't get what are you registering for, but.. eh, whatever. Anyhow, you log into the user you have/made and just choose a planet to play on and start your game. You choose your planet's name and proceed. Then you get to pick your Cell diet: Herbivore or Carnivore. Now theres a challenge: to get awesomely KEWL (that means cool) parts to evolve. I managed twice to get them all, and you can get: (by order)

1. Spikes or whutever: works best putting just beside your mouth, so you can attack just by bumping frontwards into someone.

2/3: Poison thingies or some kind of fins which are both more speed and both turn speed.

Likeliness on the 4th to 6th things:

Jet, superduper speed. More likely to be 4th than 5th.

Electro-butt (even though it hasn't to be the butt, there are NPC's cells with electrostuff on their rears).
5th, with 20%+- to be 6th.

AND THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE:
An Omnivore mouth! Now omnivores can eat both fruit and meat. They get hungry faster, yeah, but it's so worth it. I mean, Hebivores eat some meat. Sure. But then again, they puke.
If you get it after the last checkpoint sign, you're doomed. Probably, I never got it after the checkpoints sign. Except that time when I WANTED TO GET OMNIVORE so much and I tried getting omnivore, but by the time I got it I already needed to evolve so yeah, I tried a few more times.

SIDE NOTE: It doesn't matter if you start as a Herbivore or a freaking Carnivore. Only after the cell stage it means anything, and while you are a Cell it could change.

So, now I'm at the space stage and there are 43285724543 more things for you to get. Not gonna put it in here, not gonna happen.

The other stages are: The Creature stage, Tribe stage, Civilization stage and finally the Space stage.
Vatever. (That's a whatever).



[6fml21n]

Now I'm going to shortly describe the stages.

Cell stage: SUPER COOL Packman Stage.
Creature stage: Just another roleplaying game stage.
Tribe stage: Sims stage.
Civilization stage: God, just be religious, you'll finish in no time. (Astrategy stage)
Space Stage: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...




[5mdh617]
RANKS:
Graphics: 8. It's awesome even at low level, but it lags insanely at high.
Gameplay: 9.5. Simple to use and addictive. Kind of.
PG accuracy: Now seriously, I know a 10 year old that plays that. I think 8's could play too without having a supreme permission. And then they say, 12+.    4. (doesn't count in calculation)
Simplicity: 5.5 Seriously simple at the Cell stage, but a TINY LITTLE BIT (not) more complicated at the Space stage.
Story: What story?
Evolution timing: 9.99999... Great, Really. Apparently the 10 minutes you spend on being a Cell equals to 7bilyears.

AVERAGE SCORE: (Calculating evolution timing as 10)
8.25

Oh yeah, BTW. This is my first review ever.
